Maybe you know different people than I, but most of the non-technical computer users I know, when asked about where is a document, will answer "Oh I saved my curriculum in Word" instead of a folder.

There's one thing I don't understand. When you execute code automatically, what do you do about side effects? If I have code that write, read or delete a file for example.

It's great. I wonder if it would be possible to switch colors? You would start with green for example, then change to red and the fluids start to mix the colors?

Apologists? I thought the term was fanboy - at least that's how an Apple "apologist" would be labeled here. The level of trust on Google that some people have is really astonishing. I think the problem is, for all their "do no evil" mantra,

On the other hand, lots of people in this thread are saying google's policy is the right thing in this case. Would they say the same if apple was refusing an app with a middle finger icon? A book? A song? I think they're both wrong, but I u

I think that in the first part Fry is being very sloppy with his language, if not actually wrong, although I think I understand what he meant with it. I think what he means is more in the sense of PC open computing, like, you throw in wha

Maybe that's because your interactions with this account weren't deleted. Maybe you still were mentioned in walls, or people you chatted with still had the history of messages. That's just a guess, I don't work at facebook, but I think even

Frankly, I can't understand what's your point with this phrase. I think he obviously meant Google paid 12.5 billion for Motorola — a handset maker with rapidly declining sales, no recent profits, and misguided management - _only for the pat

Shouldn't this be solved by automatic saving apps' settings? In Lion, shouldn't I be supposed to put an application somewhere and it will stay there even after I quit it? I've installed Lion but had no time to play with it, will try this wh

Well, I'm pretty sure I'm in minority here. After abusing tabs for a long time I decided to switch back to windows and I must say I'm very happy. Now when I Command-Tab in Safari I get a new window. These windows pile on the desktop, so eve

Well, I always hear there are iPhone shortages, so it would annoy users too. I'm still waiting for the iPhone 4 to come to Brazil and would be VERY annoyed if there was a new delay on top of the already long lag between the iPhone 4 launch

I think he simply doesn't see any real benefits (for Apple) in open sourcing it. Surely the occasional geek will benefit, but there simply isn't that much market pressure for Apple to feel the need, neither other benefits, like it gets with

There's a definition to atheism I've read once that I think it's the best way to define what atheism means to me: An atheist doesn't believe in god the same way he doesn't believe in santa claus, or werewolves. It's not that he can positive

I think that, with the tablet, apple will try to redefine the computer experience for people less used to computers -- they'll try to make the computer more like the iPhone, make it simpler by dropping features. I think it will maybe run on
